Join the gym? Get active. Do 1 hour of cardio every day. Even if it’s just walking in your neighborhood. Cut sugary and fats from your diet. If you drink regular coke , switch it to Diet Coke. If you eat fast foods , get the healthier options from the menu. I don’t know about where your live, but Tacobell has an option called “ power bowl” that has all the healthy nutrients you need without eating a ton of fats. Start following people on social media who have the same goal as you, people who teach workouts, how to prepare healthy food options , etc. Use social media in your favor. If you can’t afford to pay for a gym membership ( even though I’d suggest planet fitness for starters, it costs like $14 a month) ,start working out in your room or in your backyard , buy a yoga mat, do strength exercises, buy a jump rope. You can even get affordable treadmills from Amazon for around $225.
As per diet, be mindful of what you eat. Replace sugary and fatty foods with fruits, veggies ( Walmart has them really affordable) . Choose always a sugar free version of the things you like. If you have medical insurance, see if they can cover you visits with a dietitian ( most insurances cover it nowadays). There are many things you can that don’t require Ozempic. It may take a little longer , maybe 6 months to a year to see great results, but with consistency and determination you can get there.
Also don’t focus on being a size this or that. A size 0 won’t look good on everyone. If you have a large bone structure it will look odd. So focus achieving a healthy weight , reaching your ideal BMI levels. So that way, not only you’ll look better, you’ll live longer. And have more quality of life.

@SW-User that doesn't work for some of us. I have PCOS which makes losing weight INCREDIBLY difficult, even with strict diet and reg exercise. Trust me, I've busted my ass trying.

@DearAmbellina2113 I don’t know if that’s her case, my advice is a general advice for people trying to lose weight. If she has the same condition it’s best for her to seek an endocrinologist to see if they have any options for her for weight loss. I know there are some FDA approved medications for that.

@IAmNothing I’m sorry to hear that, if you have medical insurance, my advice would be consulting with a specialist in weight loss, usually endocrinologists , they can help you better than we ever could. Sometimes even family doctors offer treatment as well.
